no SIMS 4 folders are being shown once downloaded any Torrents.

i've recently just downloaded all the sims 4 torrents. Read all the instruction which I did for my last laptop, and once downloaded no Electronic arts folder can be found in my documents, to view my saved and mods folders. The game works fine but I would like to add my mods back on to make the gameplay more enjoyable. 


I had all theses torrents on my previous laptop without any problems. I brought this yesterday and just downloaded but doesn't seem to be in my favour.


If this post isn't allowed please let me know and i'm sorry. So excited to head on the Cats and Dogs expansion pack!!

Have you tried enabling mods in The Sims 4? Usually the Electronic Arts folder is created on first use. Try changing a setting and close the game then look.

Have you tried searching for the folder? ( The search function in the taskbar. )Search for The sims 4.

I've tried both of them, not seeming to be turning up for some reason. Not really sure what's happening. I'm quite frustrated.

Hello and welcome to the Forum @tashybails,

When you install the basegame of The Sims 4 (from G4TW), there will be a custom installer, with windows that you need to click through. Once you installed the basegame, you have to copy/paste the other updates over your installation. And replace all existing files. Have you done that? And did you also make sure to use the program WinRAR for extraction of each torrent? 

Also check out this reference guide here too, in case of doubt:

What exactly did you do to fix this, if I may ask?

And the mods go under C:\Users\(your username)\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Mods. This folder will show up after you started up the game, the first time.
